AMD Athlon Gold 3150U vs AMD Ryzen 7 3750H

AMD Athlon Gold 3150U

► remove from comparison AMD Athlon 3150U

The AMD Athlon Gold 3150U is a mobile processor for thin and light entry level laptops. It is based on the Dali series (Raven Ridge Dual Core) and offers two Zen cores clocked at 2.6 to 3.3 GHz with SMT (four threads at once) and 4 MB L3-Cache. The integrated graphics card is called Radeon RX Vega 3 and offers only 3 CUs (192 Shaders) clocked at up to 1000 MHz.

In Chromebooks, AMD calles the APU AMD Athlon Gold 3150C, but with the exact same specifications (and performance).

Performance

The average 3150U in our database is in the same league as the Core i3-10110U, as far as multi-thread benchmark scores are concerned. In other words, this is an entry-level chip, as of mid 2022. While not slow by any means, it is anything but fast, either.

Your mileage may vary depending on how high the CPU power limits are and how competent the cooling solution of your system is.

Power consumption

The Athlon has a default TDP, also known as the long-term power limit, of 15 W that laptop makers are free to change to anything between 12 W and 25 W with clock speeds and performance changing accordingly as a result. Most will go for a higher value to reach higher performance levels. Either way, an active cooling solution will be needed to dissipate the heat.

The AMD 3150U is built with a 14 nm manufacturing process resulting in low, as of early 2023, energy efficiency.

AMD Ryzen 7 3750H

► remove from comparison AMD R7 3750H

The AMD Ryzen 7 3750H is a mobile SoC that was announced in January 2019. It combines four Zen+ cores (8 threads) clocked at 2.3 - 4 GHz with a Radeon RX Vega 10 graphics card with 10 CUs (640 Shaders) clocked at up to 1400 MHz. Compared to the similar Ryzen 7 3700U, the 3750H offers a 20 Watt higher TDP and therefore a better performance under long periods of load. The integrated dual-channel memory controller supports up to DDR4-2400 memory. As the features of the Picasso APUs are the same compared to the Raven Ridge predecessors, we point to our Raven Ridge launch article.

Picasso SoCs use the Zen+ microarchitecture with slight improvements that should lead to a 3% IPS (performance per clock) improvements.

Performance

The average 3750H in our database is in the same league as the Core i7-10610U, as far as multi-thread benchmark scores are concerned. This is a fairly good result, as of early 2022.

The ROG Zephyrus G15 GA502DU is among the fastest laptops built around the 3750H that we know of. It can be about 20% faster in CPU-bound workloads than the slowest system featuring the same chip in our database, as of August 2023.

Power consumption

This Ryzen 7 has a default TDP of 35 W (also known as the long-term power limit). Laptop manufacturers are free to change that value to anything between 12 W and 35 W with clock speeds and performance changing accordingly. These values are comparatively high, making an active cooling solution pretty much a necessity.

Last but not the least, this AMD APU is built with a rather old, as of late 2022, 12 nm process for lower-than-average energy efficiency.
